Antonio Pierce’s Job at Risk After Davante Adams Fallout as Tom Brady’s 1st Move as Raiders Co-Owner Comes to Light

The Las Vegas Raiders'Antonio Pierce, the struggles on the field have continued, especially after trading star receiver Davante Adams following a fallout. To add to the uncertainty, Tom Brady, the legendary quarterback, now holds a minority stake in the Raiders, and his influence could soon shake things up in a big way.

Kirk Minihane, host of the Kirk Minihane Show, recently dropped a bombshell about Brady's first move as Raiders co-owner. According to Minihane, "People have told me that Brady's first move is to ask Bill Belichick if he's interested in being coach of the Las Vegas Raiders." Brady and Belichick, who together won six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots, could be looking to reunite in Las Vegas, a move that would undoubtedly change the team's future.

This speculation has put Antonio Pierce's job in jeopardy. While Pierce has gained love and respect from both players and fans since taking over the coaching reins, it's hard to ignore the allure of bringing in someone like Belichick. As Minihane revealed, sources within the Patriots organization have confirmed that Brady may indeed approach his former coach. Given Belichick's unmatched resume, it's easy to see why Raiders fans might be excited about the prospect, even if it means sacrificing Pierce.

For now, all eyes are on the Raiders' next steps. Will Brady really push for Belichick? Could Pierce survive another blow in a chaotic season? The void in the offense section following Adams' departure, is a primary thing of concern for the Raiders now. Yet one thing's for sure – the drama in Las Vegas is only just beginning.

Reunited and ready: Davante Adams joins Jets, sparks anticipation for Rodgers connection Davante Adams is set to make a highly anticipated debut with the New York Jets this Sunday night against the Steelers. The All-Pro wideout, acquired from the Raiders for a conditional third-round pick, reunites with his former Green Bay quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, igniting excitement among Jets fans. Adams, who had been sidelined with a hamstring injury, is now feeling "great" and ready to roll, as he said on The Pat McAfee Show.

Raiders coach Antonio Pierce, meanwhile, believes his team will be just fine despite losing their star receiver. "We didn't have him the last few weeks. We're fine," Pierce told The Athletic. The Raiders, sitting at 2-4, have already adjusted to playing without Adams, but the trade solidifies their need to move forward. Pierce's "next man up" mentality will see Jakobi Meyers and others stepping up in Adams' absence.

Adams' reunion with Rodgers brings back memories of their electric connection in Green Bay, where they combined for 7,590 yards and 69 touchdowns. Jets coach Jeff Ulbrich is excited to have Adams on board, calling him "an amazing human being" and praising his humility. The Adams-Rodgers duo is expected to elevate the Jets' offense, which has struggled in recent weeks.

With Adams joining Garrett Wilson, Todd Downing now has a "cool problem" of figuring out how to maximize the talent at wide receiver, but Adams' chemistry with Rodgers could make all the difference.
